   note I added a new field comparator source for the niche case where one 
shard range hasn't yet indexed a document with a given field and then is asked 
to sort on that field. the sort value of all documents for such a field is 
defined as null, which sorts first in the nouveau results because that's how 
couch_ejson_compare is defined. 
   
   This can trigger if your index function doesn't always index a value for the 
field you wish to sort on or you have so few documents in your index that one 
or more shard ranges have not yet indexed anything.
